The only 'bug' is that Konqueror stays open after the request has been passed to Firefox. Is there a way to prevent this? If I open hyperlinks in any other program or from any other source (ie; from documents, Howto's or links embedded in applications), Konqueror doesn't even appear.
I'd appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction on this.

Rob; Thanks but that's not what I'm trying to solve. I've been using that particular fix for a while now.
Your suggestion is designed to allow me to open my email client when I click on an email link in a webpage.
What I'm trying to do is to open a web-link when it's included in an email. For instance, the link you provided above. When I click on it, Firefox should open and take me to the correct page.
In fact, this DOES work, but in the process of opening Firefox, KDE launches Konqueror FIRST, (which shows the web-page link which I had previously clicked on), then it passes the link to Firefox, which also opens the link.
The minor problem I'm having is that Konqueror stays open and I'm not so sure that it should be opening in the first place. That's what I'm trying to prevent, or as an alternative, I'd like to have Konqueror close itself after passing the hyperlink to Firefox.
Hope that clears up the confusion and Thanks again for trying to help!
